10 Must Haves For Your School Bag

School is finally back in session and our school bags are already dragging us down. You probably have things in your bag from the first week of classes that you already don't need in your bag. Well luckily this article is gonna tell you what your school bag essentials should be!

1. A Planner

Having a planner is a total game changer! Writing down and keeping track of all of your homework, appointments, and responsibilities is the most effective way to keep it all done. Without my planner, I probably wouldn't remember anything I had to do.

2. Oil Wipes

These things are absolute life savers! Blotting wipes are a great way to prevent your skin from getting oily throughout the day. I keep at least two packs of these in my bag at all times!

3. Marble Notebook

I am obsessed with marble, so clearly my notebooks are no exception to this obsession. This notebook is so small and sleek, it is easy to just slide in your bag and go.

4. Pens

I loose every pen that I ever come in contact with, so I thought why not buy pens that I won't want to loose! These pens are so sleek and feel so nice to write with, plus I will never loose them with how pretty they are. Another plus is that they match the marble notebook that I have!

5. Rose Water

I love keeping spray on me just to freshen up throughout the day, Rose water is perfect for that. It is so refreshing and it will even cool you down on the hottest of days, I took it with me to all of my outdoor concerts this summer and it kept me so refreshed!

6. Lip Balm

I struggle with dry lips all year long, so for me this is a must in my bag. You will always catch me putting something on my lips and when it's not lipstick then it's lip balm! This product keeps my lips moisturized for hours, I'm so happy that I found this product!

7. Pencil Case

The reason I loose all the pens I do is because they are all just laying in my bag and I don't have a pencil case! A pencil case is a game changer, not only do I use it to store my pens but I sometimes put my phone charger or but spare change that I collect throughout the day!

8. Dried Fruit

I get a little hangry during the day so the best way to calm that down is to always carry a little snack on me. I usually try to eat healthy so I always like to have some type of dried fruit in my bag!

9. Water Bottle

It is important to keep hydrated during the day, so I always keep some type of water bottle on me at all times! Plus this water bottle goes with all of my school supplies!

10. Lotion

I always feel like my hands get dry during the day so I love to have lotion in my bag just in case. I love this lotion because it doesn't leave my hands all greasy like other lotions do!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
